Chapter 423 My man understands everything at once!

After Li Shufen was happy, she started to worry again. The store was already open, but there was not a single piece of clothing in it. How could she maintain the business?

Su Mei told Li Shufen not to worry about the lack of finished clothes and that she could continue with the previous custom-made model.

However, there is now a surcharge for custom-made items. Clothes made according to templates are charged at the original price. If the customer wants them tailored to his or her own style, the price will be at least four times higher.

"Four times, is that too high?" Li Shufen couldn't help but be shocked when she heard Su Mei's offer. The current price of a set of their ready-made clothes is about fifty yuan. If it is quadrupled, it will be two hundred.

If a set of clothes costs 200 yuan, how can it be sold? Who is crazy enough to spend 200 yuan to make custom clothes?

The price is very expensive, Su Mei knows that, she said: "It is expensive for a reason, tailor-made, think about how much more time you have to spend to consider what kind of embroidery you want to make for the other party?

We also have to make the styles individually, and we can only make one piece of clothing once... If the price wasn't too high, everyone would be able to afford it, and we wouldn't be able to handle it.

It would be enough if there were a dozen noble ladies in Yanjing City who could afford our custom-made clothes. As long as ten of them wore them, our clothes would become a symbol of the upper class.

These customized styles can boost sales of other clothes. Just do as I say."

"I'm just surprised... Two hundred dollars for a set of clothes sounds scary, but I will definitely listen to you. Everything you do has its reason." Li Shufen said to Su Mei.

Su Mei was very happy to be trusted by Li Shufen, but she still reminded Li Shufen: "You have to figure out the tricks and principles on your own. When your business grows bigger, you have to be independent.

I can still give you some advice when I am not busy, but if I have other businesses in the future, you will have to make your own decisions on many things."

"I know, I will study hard." Li Shufen nodded seriously.

After talking about pricing, Su Mei talked to Li Shufen about hiring: "Sister Shufen, it's definitely too busy for you and Sister Suhua to handle the store, so we still need to recruit some apprentices.

But you have to be careful with the apprentices. The apprentices we recruit can only be taught to make clothes. You can’t just let anyone learn your Shu embroidery skills.”

"I know this. Apart from Suhua, I won't teach anyone else casually." You can't judge a person by his appearance, but you can still know his heart. Li Shufen certainly understands this. Her embroidery skills and Su Mei's designs are the core selling points of this store.

She would not casually teach the core selling point of the store to others and teach her apprentices to starve themselves to death. Li Shufen would certainly not do such a thing.

After discussing the shop's affairs behind closed doors, Su Mei and Li Shufen left the shop.

Outside the shop, Huo Jianguo, Zeng Shengqiang and Su Shengxue were cleaning up the garbage left over from the party.

The three men worked for the entire afternoon and finally cleaned every place by nightfall.

After they finished their work, Su Mei, Li Shufen and Yang Suhua also prepared dinner.

Six adults, plus Qiuqiu, a total of seven people sat together to have dinner.

At the dinner table, Su Mei finally had the opportunity to ask about Su Shengxue's situation in the crew. She saw that Su Shengxue brought a crew member to dinner today, so she asked him:

"Fifth brother, judging from the people you brought here today, you should be doing well in the crew?"

Coming from the countryside, Su Mei felt good that she was not excluded and could get along well with the crew.

"It's OK. The crew came here mainly to buy clothes..." Su Shengxue said, taking a look at the clothes he was wearing. He continued,

"My clothes were all made by Sister Shufen. The crew said the designs were good and the embroidery was great, and they were all very curious.

The crew also needed nice clothes, so they came here when they heard that the business was opening today!"

"So that's how it is!" Su Mei nodded. She thought for a moment and said, "If the leading actors in your crew need special clothes, you can ask

They can come directly to our store to make it, and we can deliver it for free.”

"Free? That won't do." Su Shengxue shook his head. "If you don't make money, you're a bastard. You don't have to think about doing them a favor for me. You don't have to. I can do a little bit of everything in the crew. I'm actually quite popular."

"It's not a favor." Su Mei explained, "I won't spend so much money to do you such a useless favor. This is not a favor, it's sponsorship!"

"Sponsor?" Su Shengxue said that he had no idea and didn't understand.

Su Mei explained: "Sponsorship means that I donate clothes to them in the name of a business, but it's not free. They have to put a thank you to 'Su Fen Xi Xiu' for providing the clothes at the beginning and end of the movie!"

"This is like advertising!" Huo Jianguo immediately understood the benefits of doing this. "When the time comes, let the customers know that the clothes worn by movie stars are from our store, then customers will naturally flock to the store!"

"That's it!" Su Mei smiled at Huo Jianguo. She habitually praised him: "My man's brain is very useful, he can understand things at a glance!"
